The proposed renovation is much needed. The door to my room was heavy and hard to open. The carpet was in pretty bad shape. Just felt gross. The staff was friendly and attentive the only reason they still got.a 3star review.

2/10 Poor

Comfort Suites Albuquerque/North Journal Center was CLOSED! I arrived around 5:30pm on Monday, November 24 for my stay and the doors were locked with only a note on the door about arriving after 10pm and who to call. I called and they informed me that they had a fire 2 weeks prior and are rebooking all stays across the street at the Hilton Homewood. So I went there, that hotel was fine. But why was I allowed to book a hotel that wasn't actively open and with no communication before arriving about the fire and closure. Bizarre! across rhe street

8/10 Very good

The average ratings are due to renovations going on Once done, average rating could be bumped up. Staff was very friendly and attentive

Room was spacious and comfortable. Not as clean as I would have liked. Used soap in the shower and the coffee machine was not clean Breakfast was ok At 8 they were out of some options and had no intention of replenishing The elevator definitely needed attention

Great place to stay and good breakfast. I would stay again.
Christopher, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Breakfast was good, but, wasn't stocked in a very timely manner. Staff seemed more preoccupied with their phones and balloons. Room seemed very overpriced in comparison with amenities and condition of room. It was probably priced this way in concert with the Balloon Festival that was going on.
Mark, 3-night trip

This is our go-to place to stay when we need a small get away
